Max Kuehne Style Floral Incised Tall Chest of Drawers with Brass Strapping

About the Item

Modernist chest of five drawers by Henredon, the faces of which have been decoratively incised with a pattern of flowers and embellished with solid brass strapping, circa 1959. Top two drawers have removable dividers and a vide poche tray.  I believe these were inspired by Japanese Isho-Dansu chests. Very clean inside and out. Patination to brass. Ebonized finish beautifully restored. Ready to place. We also have listed separately the companion long low chest of drawers and single nightstand or side table. Unmarked but drawer of nightstand is stamped Henredon. Similar to designs of Adolf Loos.

Dorothy Draper Viennese Collection Ivory Chest with Gold Incised Drawers
By Henredon, Dorothy Draper
Located in Saint Louis, MO
Hollywood glamour then and now, this Viennese Collection chest of drawers was designed by the Queen of Hollywood Regency - Dorothy Draper - in the early 1960s and features solid brass rectangular pulls centered amidst incised rectangles set in an octagonal drawer front pattern, circa 1960. Dorothy Draper's incised pattern purposefully blurs the rectangular drawer fronts and instead focuses the admirer on the glamorous honeycomb pattern outlined in gold lacquer and finished with glowing solid brass drawer pulls. She transforms a large, functional three drawer chest into an artistic object with golden shapes and textures. The pattern also interlocks in pairs or sets of three, so these chests look especially grand in sets. The piece is finished on all sides which allows it to float in a room. As they say, the eye has to travel and this Dorothy Draper Viennese chest...
